These photos are absolutely amazing. I've always love mantis, they have so much personality. I have always saved them when I found them indoors, but gosh, I wish I could take photos of them like that. I really love the silhouettes with the wings out. Have you ever seen the babies coming out of the alien looking egg casings before? I found one that was busy hatching out and the babies are ridiculously small but so cute.

I have seen the small ones coming out of the egg case a couple of times. 🙂 But always when I was a kid and I had no idea how to take a macro photograph. Furthermore, digital photography wasn't even invented making things even more complicated.
I hope, I'll see the hatching again, now that I have the right macro equipment.

I hope so too, I'll look forward to that post Borjan, they are really so sweet when they are teeny tiny. Really cool little creatures and you capture them so well.
